Formula Overview

$16.50/0.05 oz. - $330.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have more "depth" in the "base tone" and specifically designed to work for deeper skin tones in the way that the more transparent Iridescent Multichrome finish does. They are supposed to have a "tanned base."

While other Multichromes may require more specific application or technique, the brand says that this formula can be used "the same way you would" apply any "highlight or shadow."

The consistency has a denser, smoother feel that wasn't too firm, so I had no trouble picking up product with eyeshadow or highlighter brushes (without having to wet the brush). The product applied evenly, had semi-opaque to opaque, buildable coverage, and was blendable. Some of the shades with larger shimmer/sparkle had light fallout during application. They wore between eight and nine hours on me before fading a bit.
